The
words fire and stone go together like a river and water. As long as
fire has been used, so to has it been accompanied by stone. The variety
of stone fireplace designs is endless, but the best material choice is
simple and standard. Today, the use of “real stone” has been
reinvented. Stoneyard.com
takes these natural stones and sorts, splits, and saws them into Thin
Veneer. This process makes the stone easier to install, deliver, and
handle.

Round
Stone Veneer has the irregular outside shapes of a smooth yet irregular
mosaic pattern, with the depth and impact of rounded stones. Its
rustic qualities lend themselves well to an Old-World style. Its
natural face shows the weathered exterior of the stone. Round is the
most traditional New England shape making it the perfect choice for your
next fireplace project.

Whether
you are constructing a new fireplace or covering existing brick, know
that natural stone is timeless. Choosing the Boston Blend Round Thin
Veneer to be centered in the heart of your home will truly warm your
family for generations to come.
